How often should the timing belt on a Citroen C-Quatre be replaced?
1 Answers
Citroen C-Quatre's timing belt generally needs to be replaced every 90,000 kilometers or 6 years. The relevant details are as follows: 1. The timing belt is a rubber component that can deteriorate over time, affecting its performance and potentially leading to engine failure. The C-Quatre maintenance manual specifies that the timing belt should be replaced every 90,000 kilometers or every six years. 2. The steps for replacing the timing belt are as follows: (1) Remove the outer cover of the timing belt and check the alignment marks on the camshaft. There are alignment holes on both wheels on the cylinder head. (2) Remove the spark plugs and use a welding rod or other rod-like object to rotate the crankshaft until the piston reaches the top dead center position. (3) Secure the camshaft with two 10mm screw rods and mark the two timing wheels to prevent misalignment. (4) Remove the old belt and install the new one.
